     THE 75TH ANNIVERSARY OF JENSEN'S RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITIES, INC.

 Mr. SMITH of New Hampshire. Mr. President, I rise today to pay 
tribute to the Jensen's Residential Communities, Inc., as they 
celebrate 75 years as an exceptional provider of affordable homes.
  Today, I would like to give my congratulations to the Jensen family 
for their success in establishing and managing communities of premier 
manufactured homes. I would also like to extend my gratitude on behalf 
of New Hampshire and its local communities for providing such an 
excellent combined example of quality and economy.
  The Jensen Residential Communities began in 1927 by Mr. Kristian 
Jensen Sr. as one of the pioneering manufactured home communities in 
New Hampshire. Since its inception, the housing communities have spread 
across to seven eastern states, totaling 27 developments. There are 
currently five Jensen Residential Communities in New Hampshire alone.
  I want to congratulate the Jensen family once again for an admirable 
entrepreneurial endeavor and a first-rate product. Thank you for your 
continuous pledge to meet the needs of the American family. It is an 
honor to represent you in the US Senate.
